MGM Resorts awards over $2 million to nonprofits

23 August 2023

(PRESS RELEASE) -- The MGM Resorts Foundation has awarded more than $2.7 million in grants to nonprofit organizations located in communities in which MGM Resorts operates, including Southern Nevada, Michigan, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, Northeast Ohio, the DC Metropolitan area and Western Massachusetts. 107 nonprofit organizations received funding from the Foundation's Community Grant Fund. The organizations provide services around affordable housing, economic opportunity and workforce development, K-12 education, family services, food insecurity, health and wellness, homelessness, services for seniors and services for veterans and military families.

An Employee-Led Effort

MGM Resorts employees are at the heart of the Foundation, donating to the Community Grand Fund throughout the year. Grant decisions are made by Community Grant Councils, committees of employee volunteers who represent their respective regions and determine which local nonprofit agencies will receive funding.

The MGM Resorts Foundation was established in 2002 as an opportunity for MGM Resorts employees to contribute to important charitable causes. Since inception, the Foundation has raised more than $100 million and supported more than 1,500 charitable organizations. Guests are also able to contribute to the MGM Resorts Foundation.

"MGM Resorts employees continue to amaze us with their generosity and commitment to our local communities," said Maria Gatti, Vice President of Philanthropy and Community Engagement. "On behalf of our 107 grant recipients, thank you for your donations and even more importantly, for enlivening our company's belief in investing in our communities through giving as well as volunteerism."
